can a spanish speaker help me understand why the speaker is talking about his own native language with "el idioma tu"?
feels more like "your language" but I want to understand why it isn't

A translation could be
"Fuck mate, my language got changed, yo"
The final "tu" is a "muletilla", a filler word
okay thanks I think I get it. ~~it's like a set construction with that pronoun that doesn't vary with viewpoint~~
To be fair, since I'm not Spaniard and I don't often hear spaniards talking informally, nor I know who made this meme, that final "tu" could be a slang filler word like the "bo" in uruguayan for example (most likely in my opinion), or it could be a mistranslation
Def not mistranslation, we youngsters use that "tú" at the end a lot as in "yo" in central Spain
Spanish speaker here to make things more complicated: tu without an accent is the possessive (your in English), tú with an accent is the pronoun you.
yeah I definitely used the wrong word there, thank you for clarifying

Is the joke they now speak a language with gendered nouns?
Good catch but look at the energy beam colours
